Free License an Evil.

Formerly it was the haole who figured in
the Police Court as the common drunk, or
forfeited his little six dollars bail. Now this
is somewhat changed, and the Kanaka, in a
great measure, has taken his place. This is
the outcome of the free liquor icense-sell-
ing to all who have the money to buy-and
is demoralicing the native to degree which
will ultimately prove disastrous to the race.
The authors of the free liquor license have
much to answer for in placing this certain
destroyer of this people within the reach of
all. With plenty of poor liquor, and unscru-
pulous vendors, the aboriginees of these fair
Isles will, ere many decades, be gathered in
with their fathers, leaving no progeny to fill
their places. A glance at the Police records
will verify all that has been stated above.

Manager of the GLzETTE and Captain

and there is every prospect OF his being able
to return to business in week or two. Mr..
Whitney, who is thoroughly active man
has felt the restraint of dark room very
keenly. We are happy to say, however, that
in spite of this draw back his general health
has remained good. The Office and his many

cal talent have been industriously engaged
rehearsing for what is to be known as an
"Old Folks Concert" The music and cos
tunes are to be of the style of the eighteenth
century. The proceeds of the entertainment
are tolbe devoted to one of the worthy beneV-

the outline Of the programme, a rare enter

which cannot fail to please all who may at
tend this quaint concert 1t is not hazard
ing too much to say that full house may be
relied on. Remember Friday evening next.

an infected port, and it would be we'll for the
health authorities to be prepared with proper
quarantine measures to guard against the

of some tramp vessel from that section.

be dealt out IN merchandise. The highest

"How do the American negroes get along
IN Liberiar'
Those who go there with the intention Of
working get along very well, but the lazy
ones are discontented. The Americo-L Lberi-
ans have a regular system Of schools, and
they are rapidly advancing in civilization.
You will not find in the whole United States
such an industrious settlement Of negroes as
you will find in Liberia. Their army is
made up of fine looking men, and their mill
tary officers are dressed in the same uniform,
practically. as those Of Europe. 1t is differ

'The constitution Of the republic is mod
eled after that Of the United States. Elections
are by ballot, and voters have to have real
estate. The president is elected for two
years, the senators for four and the repre-
sentatives for two. Each county sends two
senators TO the legislative assembly. and there
is one representative for every 10000 inhabit-
ants. White men cannot vote. The present
president is II. W. X. johnson, and he has q
cabinet the same as our president"
"IIow about missionaries and missionary
work.
Tho best missionaries in Liberia ars the
Catholics: and, by the way, the Mohnnme-
dams have done more missionary work in
Africa than the Christians. 1t will be a sur
prise to Christendom to know that the Nc
hammedans are doing m re missionary work
than they are. They get close to the Lberian
and talk right to the people, learn their Ian
guage and associate with them. Methodist
and Baptist missionaries are not successful
because they keep aloof from the people and
preach sermons away above their heads
They scatter tracts broadcast which none can
read, and they seldom get any contributions
from the people. Tie Catholics do little
better, and a French priest, Pere Blanchet,
who came there in lSs2, is the most success
ful OF all the missionaries, owing to his kind
ly nature and generosity"
